Verse
Some day is always a glum day,
You lose all your spirit;
Bleak day, that workaway weekday,
And oh how you fear it!
Closing, your heavy eyes closing,
Till nearly asleep, dear,
Dozing, while dreaming dozing,
Your troubles will keep, dear;

REFRAIN
Sleepyhead, you'd better go dreaming
Sleepyhead, don't open your eyes!
Sleepyhead, or why should you worry away?
You'd better hurry away 
Into your daydreams
Gay dreams!
Sleepyhead, when tears come a-streaming
Oh, weepyhead, no sorrow is wise;
Sleep away,
Deep away,
Keep away your sighs.
Sleepyhead, don't open your eyes!
